Typical inside-the-pants holster design has always been quite simple; a piece of suede leather with a spring clip attached. The problem is reholstering is very difficult since the holster flattens as soon as the pistol is removed. Springs tend to catch on things and wear out resulting in the holster coming out attached to the gun. Proper fitting grip is not possible because the pistol sits too far below belt level.
In 1967, Bruce Nelson designed the Summer Special to correct the problem inherent in the typical design. This inside-the-pants holster has a small lined top band to allow reholstering. It utilizes a snap around the belt that is secured by a one way "pull the dot"
snap. Thin leather precision hand molded, minimizes bulk inside the pants, and the "rough out" texture allows the leather to adhere to clothes for position stability. This holster is made with a wide strap for certain short-barreled pistols to create additional stability. This holster is made natural, unfinished leather only, nickel hardware only.
